i'm michael summer connish in for chris matthews. president obama calls for congress to act on a scaled down deal that would spare the middle class on tax hikes from the first of the year. he spoke with john boehner tonight but is grand bargain still possible when everybody is leaving town. then in the weeks since the shooting massacre in a town that left hand 20 children and six educators dead, we've been hearing for plenty calling for new gun control laws but little from the nra until now. in a bizarre meeting, the head of the nra said the solution to gun vie lerchs in this country is simple. more guns. armed officers, in fact, in every school. it's the same line we've heard from nra, but has the country's relationship with guns fundamentally changed since newtown? and what we saw is yet another symptom of a real problem for the gop. they don't believe in compromise and they've lurched too far to the right. >>> plus replacing hillary clinton, john kerry gets the job he's waited for his whole life. president obama tapped john kerry

you may say michael, what's that got to do with the fiscal cliff? i think there is an association that many people have in their mind between the nra and the republican party. obviously, the nra more supportive of gop candidates, by and large, than democratic candidates. and the statement he made today about arming someone in every school i think is out of the mainstream. aren't these all related problems that people are perceiving the republicans as being out of sync, way too conservative? >> i think that what president obama has tried to do from the start of these negotiations is to try to divide and conquer the republican party and destroy the republican party. and the way the republican party would be destroyed is if republicans abandon their basic principle. i don't want the talk about gun control, because i don't know a lot about that. but i will talk about this. if the republicans abandon their principles of limited government and less taxes, no. republicans can't vote for a tax increase because republicans don't believe in raising taxes. we

michael, the president today named john kerry to be secretary of state. it had been widely believed he wanted to choose the u.n. ambassador, susan rice. john kerry. what do you make of the choice? >> i think it's a safe choice an a good choice. this is a man who has had three decades on the foreign relations committee. former presidential candidate. would have immediate standing on the global stage, similar to the hillary clinton in this kind of job. he's also been a troubleshooter for the president in some key ways under the radar screen. when south sudan was separating from the north and it looked like those negotiations were breaking down, kerry came in and really made a difference there. so i think-- he looks good. after the rice nomination. he has less controversial nominee. he has a lot of respect among his colleagues in the senate. and so i think that the president, you know, is not-- is not a hard choice. >> i think james mann and david ignatius put it very well. i mean that he is-- he is experienced, probably unmatched in experience. he does brin
